The Rock SlideThe Rock Slide Moulded Glass Slide - Small

This is it. It fits my pinky and stays put thanks to the tapered fit and relief cut. It's heavier than a standard slide of the same size which helps sustain. It's wide enough on the fretboard to easily play 3 string chords...4 strings is the limit.If you play a pinky slide and play lead and chords with the other 3 fingers, this is the glass slide for you. I highly recommend their brass and chrome pinky slides as well. I use the brass and glass ones depending on the tone I'm after. They are both in my pocket with picks at all times.

Seems pretty simple to make a glass tube. Don't be fooled by just any tube shaped piece of glass. The Rock Slide has the subtle features that make all the difference in the world. Smooth edges, different inside diameters, and the all important cutaway. You will need to bend your finger to cord this slide. The cutaway allows you to do that very comfortably.

I literally never leave reviews on anything, good or bad. i'm just that lazy but after struggling to find the best fitting, best sounding slide to use (i've been through all the thick, dunlops, fender brands, personal bottle neck made), I have to say that Rock Slide is by far the best fitting and best feeling (in terms of playability) slide i've ever used. I will definitely be looking into their other materials to try out! But this glass one (I bought both SM and MED and found the MED to be the best fit for me btw) is truly worth every penny!!! Shout outs to Troy Brenningmeyer on YT for recommending this brand!

Coming from a Dunlop 212, the internal taper fits snugger on my pinky and gets the slide more mass overall for more sustain. It's short and could play 4 strings at once maximum. I like the sound on acoustic.

Excellent weight and sound. I've tried about 10 different slides over several decades and this is the one.Due to the shorter length, this is NOT a good fit for Elmore James style playing where you are trying to cover more than about 3 strings. For precision soloing, though, it's perfect.

Rockslide makes the best slides out there. They are about three times as expensive as most other slides, and for good reason. Well designed, good materials.

I ordered the wrong size initially and contacted seller, GearNuts, and they were kind enough to help rectify the situation. Awesome seller and neat product. Highly recommend The Rock Slide. :)

I never liked the tube slides, steel or glass, as you must crimp your third finger constantly while playing double stops and riffs. You players know how that is; I can't believe Derek still plays cheap glass tubes. Makes a world of difference in focus and control; worth the difference. Actually thought of gifting Derek a large Rockslide.
